Ultimate pickup (vehicle) gun.

[Redram]

I have been in discussions with friend about what would be the ultimate pick-up gun. It would be used on anything from varmints-wild pigs.

We came up with the criteria as follows.

Range up to 150 yards.

Optics are optional because it will most likely ride on the front seat or in a gun rack and may lose it zero.

Affordable. You wouldn't want to spend a whole bunch of money in case it gets stolen, or damaged beyond repair.

Enough power to kill wild hogs, deer, coyotes, etc.

Could be used as a backup deer rifle or a loaner.

And last but not least, dependable. It should be able to be covered in dust, rain, mud, and manure and still function.
